Ole Fursett

Ole Fursett and wife celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on Tuesday, April 25. A large number of guests spent the day with them and partook of a hearty dinner, after which Rev. Hegge made a few remarks and in behalf of the friends presented them with a fine silver tea set. A fine time was had by all present. As they were about to disperse a photograph was taken of the crowd.
